NICE GUYS DON'T FINISH LAST! (My story) (self.AdviceForTeens)
submitted 2 years ago by [deleted]
Alright.. So this is my story:
I started talking to this girl 2 months ago and we talk nonstop.. Everyday.. About a month ago, she told me she her friends think that its weird that shes been hanging out with me so much because of my personality (genuinely nice). Around the same time, she told me that she liked me a lot, more than she's liked anyone else.
A couple of weeks ago, after numerous dates, I asked her out officially and she said yes. Even though it's too early to tell, everything so far has been amazing.
Point of the story, be nice. Fuck the saying "Nice guys finish last". It's bullshit! Pardon my French. Being nice pays off! Also, be yourself! That way, you can really get to know each other better and you won't feel like you have to hide things from each other.
Thanks for reading!

You're lucky Kyle, and really, you have all the time in the world to find someone who likes you for who you really are!
Always remember: it is better to have someone fall for the real you and not for the person you pretend to be. Those who pretend to be something that they're not will always end up tired of pretending to be who they aren't. And eventually, they will have to show that person their true self. :)
[–]iAgreeToDisagree -1 points0 points1 point 2 years ago (0 children)
I wasn't very lucky for a very long time either. But I know that she's the right one for me because she likes me for my personality. She herself said "I really like you, you're so nice to me" (I'm paraphrasing because I don't remember her exact words)
But just be yourself! And it'll happen one day.
Good luck, bud!

Meyerowitz spent the next four days in anxious exile from the city where he was born. By the time he was able to get back to his apartment on Bethune Street, both he and Barrett were turned away from already overwhelmed volunteer centers. He faced more frustration the following day down at the fenced-in perimeter at Chambers and Greenwich streets, where, he says, "I had one of those experiences that change your life." Though he couldn't really see much of anything of the demolished buildings from where he stood, like any photographer, he wanted to see it through his lens. But as soon as he raised his Leica, a female police officer tapped him hard on the back and shouted, "No photographs here!" When his attempts to be reasonable failedthe "crime scene" was, after all, five blocks awayMeyerowitz showed the officer the press pass he'd secured just in case, only to be directed to a penned-in area a block further away uptown and warned that any more "lip" would result in the loss of his pass.
"I was shocked," Meyerowitz says. "It had a kind of fascistic quality. I stood there, looking at what little I could see of the pile, and thinking, If there's no photography allowed, there won't be any history." History and photography have been married since the medium's earliest days, and Meyerowitz began mentally ticking off prime examples of their link as he walked back uptown: Charles Marville, Mathew Brady, Lewis Hine, Jacob Riis, and the remarkable crew of artistsincluding Walker Evans, Dorothea Lange, and Ben Shahnbrought together by the Farm Security Administration (FSA) to record the effects of the Depression in America. By the time he got home, he'd resolved to return to the World Trade Center site and make not just a photograph but an archive. "I realized that that cop had hit me on my shoulder the way a Zen master does when you're slumping during meditation. She woke me up. I don't know who she is, but I really thank her."
Since that awakening, Meyerowitz has been a driven man. Rangy and fit at 63, with a shaved head and penetrating eyes, the photographer is already quite imposing, but his intensity has found a new and all-consuming focus. "Like every artist," he says, "you want to do something that's socially useful and meaningful, and I have periodically in my life. But a lot of times I'm making pictures that are aesthetic; they're about air, light, the view camera, and descriptionthings that are of value to me as an artist. So if I love describing places, this is just another place, but this is a place whose description was going to be lost. And it started to burn in me in a way that I haven't felt in many years, and I just got caught by it and I refused to let it go."
After convincing Robert Macdonald, the director of the Museum of the City of New York, to sponsor his archive of the aftermath, Meyerowitz managed to wangle greater and greater access to ground zero. Although there's still an official ban on photography within the perimeter of the site itself, he's made pictures there nearly every day for the past month and a half, most recently with a pass that designates him the mayor's photographer, and he intends to remain there until the ground is cleared. Ultimately, following the FSA model, he hopes to involve other photographers in the project (including Susan Meiselas, John Szarkowski, Tony Roma, and Gus Powell, who has tagged along as his "assistant" a few times), but for now he's photographing on his own. The results, destined for the collection of the Museum of the City of New York, are only just beginning to get processed and printed. One shot, of a huge torn flag on the facade of the World Financial Center, appeared in the October 15 New Yorker (which has contracted for another 18 photos over the course of the next year); another appears here. But Meyerowitz's stories from what he calls "the forbidden city," related with a Whitmanesque flair for itemization, are already in circulation, and they offer a fascinating view of life in the zone. Just listen.
"On my first night in there, I stayed until midnight," Meyerowitz says, "and by chance I bumped into a group of policemen from the arson and explosions squad, and for some reason, I charmed them. I was backing up a hill and they were sitting on the hill. There was a sea of chairschairs that had come out of the buildings, thousands of chairs, all over the place, so you would see lined up easy chairs from lobbies, executive desk chairs, bentwood chairs, Alvar Aalto chairs. And whenever they're taking a break, everybody's sitting in these chairs and watching the spectacle. So here were these four or five guys up on a little knoll in front of the World Financial Center, and I was trying to make this shot and I backed up the knoll and came into their space, and as a joke I sat in the captain's lap and we started laughing and we just hit it off. I explained to them what I was doingwhat my goal wasand they got it. And they immediately said, 'You wanna come with us?' " Meyerowitz's voice has dropped to a conspiratorial whisper. " 'We can show you some great things. We'll take you up here, we can take you there, we can take you everywhere, because we go everywhere.' And they gave me their cell phone numbers and said, 'Anytime you want to go somewhere, call us. If you get into trouble, call us.' From that day on, it's the most worked button on my cell phone."
Although he fought for unlimited access, Meyerowitz understands why it was denied. "Mostly, they were afraid that people would get hurt. Because when you first walk in, it's like a field of swordsupright. If you weren't careful"and here he makes a sudden raw, slashing sound"a pants leg would be cut open or a leg would be sliced; boots would be ripped apart. Because it was everywhere: metal, just metal. My first pictures are astonishing to me, to see all of this stuff sticking up. So they were smart to keep people away. Well, they did designate the whole area as the crime scene, and the evidence is everywhere. The buildings have strewn everything out there. The black boxes from the airplanes are still missing; the flight recorders are missing. Everywhere on the site there are posters showing you what they look like, both in new and in damaged condition, so if you turn them over by chance, they'll be returned. And these guys are still on their hands and knees, sifting, every day. They have knee pads and they have sifters that are the size of a coffee table, and they're throwing earth through sifters and they're finding teeth and knuckles and ankles and bony stuff that didn't crack and belt buckles, things that wouldn't melt."
Meyerowitz has taken what he calls project director Roy Stryker's "shooting script" for the FSAan exhaustive list of events, places, and things photographers were instructed to pay close attention to in each new townas his model for the ground zero archive. Meyerowitz's list includes street signs, fire hydrants, lampposts, manhole covers, curbs, and railingsall of them damaged in the rain of debris from the WTC collapse. As he's gained greater access to the site, he's followed that damage into the surrounding streets and photographed directions spray-painted on marble facades ("morgue," "triage," "NYPD"), messages written on ash-covered windows, handwritten signs ("just like the ones Walker Evans photographed"). Meyerowitz is determined to record these things before they're cleaned up, torn down, or moved. But he's equally caught up in the task of photographing the people at the site.
"I've seen things down there that you can only see if you keep going," he says with a kind of wonder. "There's this incredible life of the zone. All these workersriggers and crane operators and welders and diggers and truck drivers. And then there are the people who servethe cops and the troopers and everybody. And they're interacting in the forbidden city. Inside the churches and the hotels, you can get massages, foot massages, chiropractic work. These guys are killing themselves lifting things, and they come in, have a hot meal, and somebody massages them for 40 minutes or an hour. They've taken over the ballroom of the other Marriott Hotel, and it's an r&r space, filled with 150 Barcaloungers, all covered with white sheets. The lights are dim, and there's a hundred cops and workers, sleeping. There's something about being in a war zone where people are thrown together. It's very appealing, and we've never experienced that here in that way. There are pictures everywhere, and the more you go, the more you see."
A show of Meyerowitz's cityscapes of Lower Manhattan is at the Ariel Meyerowitz Gallery, 580 Broadway, through December 15. See the Short List.

See the kingpin lock in place on that parked reefer trailer? That's what I'm talkin' about – or did, in a previous blog about trailers sitting in public places just ready to be pulled away by anybody
I spotted this intelligently locked trailer last week at a small truckstop near Asheville in western North Carolina. I had pulled in there with a Volvo VNX heavy-haul tractor and parked it and its loaded East flatbed before going into the building with my Volvo hosts to take a break.
On the way back to the rig I glanced at the reefer and saw the kingpin lock in place. "All right!" I said. "That just makes so much sense."
By the unladen look of its tires and the silent reefer unit it appeared to be empty. Even so, the Utility trailer and Carrier reefer are worth what -- $35,000 or $40,000 new? Why not protect it from theft instead of returning to re-hook and finding it gone? Wouldn't it be embarrassing to have to call that in?
A manager at Greatwide Transportation, the trailer's owner, said that "using kingpin locks is not mandatory but is something left up to each individual driver." So, here's an atta-boy to the driver who slapped this lock in place.
By contrast, three slots away was a dropdeck flat with a load of structural steel and who-knows-what under a tarp on its nose. Its kingpin was bare and just begging to be clamped onto by a fifth wheel and tractor driven by a soulless creep.
What was the clean Transcraft steel-and-aluminum trailer and its load worth -- $100,000? Why would anyone park something like that without securing it? I saw no company markings on the trailer so couldn't call anyone to ask.
At about $20 to $90, a kingpin lock isn't that expensive, especially compared to the worth of a trailer and its cargo. Sure, it won't seriously discourage someone who really wants to steal this particular trailer because he wants what's inside. But for somebody more casual, a lock might send him looking for something easier to swipe.

Strategies of deductive reasoning
As compared with definitory rules, strategic rules of reasoning have received relatively scant attention from logicians and philosophers. Indeed, most of the detailed work on strategies of logical reasoning has taken place in the field of computer science. From a logical vantage point, an instructive observation was offered by the Dutch logician-philosopher Evert W. Beth in 1955 and independently (in a slightly different form) by the Finnish philosopher Jaakko Hintikka. Both pointed out that certain proof methods, which Beth called tableau methods, can be interpreted as frustrated attempts to prove the negation of the intended conclusion. For example, in order to show that a certain formula F logically implies another formula G, one tries to construct in step-by-step fashion a model of the logical system (i.e., an assignment of values to its names and predicates) in which F is true but G is false. If this procedure is frustrated in all possible directions, one can conclude that G is a logical consequence of F.
The number of steps required to show that the countermodel is frustrated in all directions depends on the formula to be proved. Because this number cannot be predicted mechanically (i.e., by means of a recursive function) on the basis of the structures of F and G, the logician must otherwise anticipate and direct the course of the construction process (see decision problem). In other words, he must somehow envisage what the state of the attempted countermodel will be after future construction steps.
Such a construction process involves two kinds of steps pertaining to the objects in the model. New objects are introduced by a rule known as existential instantiation. If the model to be constructed must satisfy, or render true, an existential statement (e.g., "there is at least one mammal"), one may introduce a new object to instantiate it ("a is a mammal"). Such a step of reasoning is analogous to what a judge does when he says, "We know that someone committed this crime. Let us call the perpetrator John Doe." In another kind of step, known as universal instantiation, a universal statement to be satisfied by the model (e.g., "everything is a mammal") is applied to objects already introduced ("Moby Dick is a mammal").
There are difficulties in anticipating the results of steps of either kind. If the number of existential instantiations required in the proof is known, the question of whether G follows from F can be decided in a finite number of steps. In some proofs, however, universal instantiations are required in such large numbers as the proof proceeds that even the most powerful computers cannot produce them fast enough. Thus, efficient deductive strategies must specify which objects to introduce by existential instantiation and must also limit the class of universal instantiations that need to be carried out.
Constructions of countermodels also involve the application of rules that apply to the propositional connectives ~, &, ∨, and ⊃ ("not," "and," "or," and "if…then," respectively). Such rules have the effect of splitting the attempted construction into several alternative constructions. Thus, the strategic question as to which universal instantiations are needed can often be answered more easily after the construction has proceeded beyond the point at which splitting occurs. Methods of automated theorem-proving that allow such delayed instantiation have been developed. This delay involves temporarily replacing bound variables (variables within the scope of an existential or universal quantifying expression, as in "some x is ..." and "any x is ...") by uninterpreted "dummy" symbols. The problem of finding the right instantiations then becomes a problem of solving sets of functional equations with dummies as unknowns. Such problems are known as unification problems, and algorithms for solving them have been developed by computer scientists.
The typical example of the use of such methods is the introduction of a formula such as A ∨ ~A; such a rule may be called tautology introduction. In it, A may be any formula whatever. Although the rule is trivial (because the formula A ∨ ~A is true in every model), it can be used to shorten a proof considerably, for, if A is chosen appropriately, the presence of either A or ~A may enable the reasoner to introduce suitable new individuals more rapidly than without them. For example, if A is "everybody has a father," the presence of A enables the reasoner to introduce a new individual for each existing one—viz., his father. The negation of A, ~A, is "it is not the case that everybody has a father," which is equivalent to "someone does not have a father"; this enables one to introduce such an individual by existential instantiation. The use of the tautology introduction rule or one of the essentially equivalent rules is the main vehicle of shortening proofs.

Federal Contract Fast-Food Workers Ask the President for a Living Wage and Better Working Conditions
The President said last week, "I'm going to keep pushing until we get a higher minimum wage for hard-working Americans across the entire country." But Congress isn't working together, and Americans making very little money cannot continue to live in poverty, while their employers can afford to pay them better wages. The President has the power to take action for people working under federal contracts. Read the White House press secretary Jay Carney's response to reporters about the minimum wage issue.

Low-wage Workers Deserve Federal Government Backing; Over 50 Civil Arrests at Los Angeles Wal-Mart Protest; OSHA Proposes Electronic Filings for Better Transparency
The current national minimum wage has people living in poverty. Votes are still being tallied, but SeaTac, Washington stepped up and lead the nation by voting on a ballot measure that would create a minimum wage of $15 an hour. The New York Times Editorial Board said, "Fast-food workers, Wal-Mart employees and staff of federal contractors have all been agitating recently for higher pay from profitable employers. They deserve raises, and they deserve to have the federal government behind them.

Just South of Washington State, 54 people were arrested last Thursday in downtown Los Angeles after blocking streets marking the largest single act of civil disobedience in Wal-Mart history. The demonstrators acted in solidarity for the twenty Wal-Mart workers that were fired after joining a walkout in June.

OSHA has proposed to make injury and illness reporting more transparent by having large companies file reports electronically. The electronic reports would be posted online and made available to the public. Eric Frumin, health and safety director at the Change to Win, said the new process creates little burden on employers that are "simply providing additional details that they are already collecting on the causes of these injuries and ways to prevent them."

Bangladesh Garment Workers Receive Minimum Wage Increase; Washington State City Gets $15 Minimum Wage; New York Elects First Democrat in 20 Years
The Bangladesh garment industry has drawn global attention for its unsafe working conditions causing hundreds of deaths in the last several months. To make matters worse, the garment industry has the lowest paid workers in the world. On Monday, a government panel voted to raise monthly wages for garment workers to 5,300 taka, which is about $68-a-month minimum wage.
Bangladesh Takes Step to Increase Lowest Pay - New York Times
Garment workers in Bangladesh are paid poorly, even with a raise, but they aren't the only workers that made progress this week. In SeaTac, residents voted on a ballot measure that created a $15-an-hour minimum wage. The approval of SeaTac Proposition 1 sent a clear message that workers can't survive off even the highest minimum wage in the country —minimum wage in Washington State is $9.19 -an-hour. "This means that the people who put fuel in jets may actually be able to buy a ticket on one," said David Rolf, vice president of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU).

On another good note, New York City's newly elected Mayor Bill de Blasio is the first Democrat to be elected in 20 years. "Tackling inequality isn't easy. It never has been, and it never will be," de Blasio said at a victory speech. Among many challenges, Mayor de Blasio will have to negotiate several city labor contracts that are due for renewal.

Sail vs. Power
In a motorboat you are always in a hurry trying to get somewhere. But while sailing you are "already there". In a motorboat its about getting there as soon as you fast as "bone-jarringly" possible, in a sailboat the journey is as enjoyable as the destination
I have done both, (as a bet most on this have list), but there is something about arriving just by the wind in your sails that makes sailing just an incredibly special experience. Most can''t say that (in general) about motorboating....Try finding someone who is really into sailing/cruising and ask to tag along for the weekend with no time frame....just go and sail, anchor, explore. I bet you will have made your decision one way or another, by the weeks end.

Lalo, you have the power to draw your world any way you want. Look at those characters – they're dismayed and definitely not happy.
Tell you what – why not try a smile once in a while? Like lots of comedians do – they get their point across but they're trying to do it with humor, and they laugh along with their audiences.
A solid diet of dour makes Jack a dull boy, so maybe it's time to show that your characters have more than one dimension, eh?
You don't want people to think Latinos don't have fun, do you? Lighten up your guys, let them smile, and start providing a more varied side of Life, baby! -
It ain't Baldo. Besides if you had to listen to right wingers talk about refugee kids like Nazis talked about Jews in "The Eternal Jew"you are not going to smile.
Lalo, I love your strip just the way it is. Pleas don't change a thing!!!
I still think that "LA CUCARACHA, THE MOVIE!" is best. With an all-Latino cast and a Miss Venezuela as Vero.
Everyone is still ignoring what all those lovable cherubs will cost local communities for housing and schooling. When the Feds step in, they will of course, screw up the effort.
We all know that you baggers only care about your pocketbooks.
And just think, once we invest in their housing and schooling, they'll get jobs, pay taxes, and fund the SSA and Medicare our own demographic imbalance won't.
"I got mine, go get yer own!" I won't get into the humanitarian dimensions of this, because you've consistently demonstrated you simply don't care about your fellow human.
So instead I'll say this, which I'm sure you'll figure out some way to avoid actually understanding: It's been shown over and over again that immigrants, including undocumented immigrants (and refugees!) put more into the US economy than they take out. They actually help the economy grow. So, you know, you've got a pretty shortsighted outlook on matters economic, even if all you care about is making sure people fatten your own wallet. -
Because addressing racism must mean smiles! Wheeeee! Here's a comedian who rarely smiled on screen: Charlie Chaplin. Here's another: Buster Keaton. Here's a couple who smiled a lot: Amos and Andy. Here's another one who did: Stepin Fetchit. Here's one who, whenever he smiled, white folks got nervous: Richard Pryor. Here's a giant hit show whose comedy did not come from people smiling: The Office. Here's another where people actually didn't smile that much: Everybody Loves Raymond. Here's a comic strip where just about nobody smiles: Pearls before Swine. Here's another where it's rare: Get Fuzzy. Heres another: The Boondocks. I'll bet you sit around grinning ear to ear when you write your little missives here. But that don't make you funny, or even happy. And I don't know if you missed the banner up top, but in the one at the top of my page, Vero is smiling wide.
But I think it's more that you don't want this strip to address social and political issues. I totally support your right to not want that. I also disagree with you 100%. -
Send the ALL to live with Lalo.
Jeezo peezo- NOTHING has changed.
Indie and agrestic- aren't your billy goat horned heads getting sore from banging against each other? -
At least mdavis can be counted on to be utterly consistent, no matter which comic mdavis is posting to. The message can be summed up as this: "Unthinking hate rage hate rage hate hate rage rage hate." -
It will take decades before the younger children will be able to earn their own living. In the meantime, we all foot the bill. Those children that grow up in our entitlement system, SNAP, low income housing, free medical care won't have a reason to try to be a benefit to our society 'cause they'll have learned they don't have to bother. Uncle Sugar will take care of everything.
Aaand, you just reconfirmed your shortsightedness. For one, 15 years stretches the definition of "decades." Sure, if they go on to college, that's more time, but the more college-educated folks there are in this country, the better off it does. People in this country buy houses on 30-year mortgages, but folks like you can't wait 15 years or less to start squeezing some return out of refugee kids. Refugee kids who, for the most part, are being claimed by family members who already live here, contribute to the economy, pay taxes, etc. As for your channeling of Mike Huckabee with your "Uncle Sugar" line, well, it's based on a completely false premise, but one that's been around at least since southern whites got mad about Reconstruction.

posted by June 6 at 11:29 AM
onlast i checked AI isn't cool. why so much coverage from a hip, indie rag?
Um, did I just hear Ra Scion refer to Blake Lewis as "B-Shorty"? LAME!
Blake Lewis has been going by B-Shorty for a few years now. He was B-Shorty before he got Idol huge.
you can also see clips of Blake Lewis, aka B-Shorty, jamming with FLOWMOTION. The Clips are on YouTube and on FLOWMOTION's website.
how do you people know so much about blake lewis and why do you care? go cure cancer or something. blake lewis really sucks!
haha blue scholars look like nerds when they try to act all contemplative w/ dorky sunglasses and wringing their hands together.
Does Sabzi kind of looks like a hyphy ostritch?
blue scholars sucks! whatever happened to REAL hiphop?
seems as if boo's had a little too much boo. dork.
boo - real hiphop - you mean like YOUR band?
love the Scholars! Sabzi and Geo are hometown heroes. did anyone even watch the video? dropping words about military recruiters in the schools is more than you're doing today, right?
Damn, that's a heavy video. Props, because that shit hits close to the heart.
I understand if beatboxing is not your style, but trashing on a guy just because he's on AI is kind dumb. Blake (b-shorty) has been around here for a few years playing shows. He won the state beatboxing championship, so he must be considered good by some folks. Just because he used a popular tv show to boost his fame and help get his foot in the door, he shouldn't be chastized. Call it selling out if you wish, but he's still a talented guy. He may not the greatest singer, but he's defininitely an entertainer. Before he went on AI he was considered hip and indie, so it's fitting that the Stranger is paying attention. Maybe they're a little behind-the-times, but there's a lot to keep up with around here, musically speaking.
man, that video is HEAVY. really, really powerful and really well done.
dear 'brad' at the top of the list and to all people who put labels and names of styles before listening and fealings... i hate 'indie' and i think it is a terrable monopoly on the seattle publicated music scene and it sucks and people like you who call things 'not indie' and therefore un-musical to me SUCK BALLS the stranger is a MUSIC mag not an INDIE mag and i aplaud the coverage of the 'music scene'. Blake and all his friends were truly indie, and underground, and under publicized for years and now he is the biggest thing to come out of seattle since nirvana (not to compare) so i personally would like to see this coverage and fuck the preconcieved 'indie rag' lest hear about the music the music.
sorry brad but i had to say it... any ways... you don't suck but you get the point...
So according to some "indie snobs" on this site, it's only cool if you're unknown and not able to make a good living doing what you love. Nuts to that!
You go, Blake! We love you! and I hope you hack off a lot of people here by being famous AND making a great living, too $$$! Being unknown by the general public and struggling to earn a living isn't necessarily a great virtue, people. It's no sin, either. But don't try to paint it as some great virtue, either.
If you can't make a decent living at something, then fewer people will know about you. That's just the way it is. Get off your indie high horse. It looks silly.

Released: Dec 01st, 2004
Running Time: 76
Director: Simon Synister
Company: Synister Films
Missy Monroe, Julie Robbins, Claire James, Clair, Sadie Synn
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Highlight Missy Monroe and put these young girls in your Teen section.
Low budget porn has to make up for its financial shortcomings by cranking the sexual heat during the scenes and capturing more raw intensity than its bigger budget competition. Area 69 never seems to explode with any excitement. In this three-scene all-girl flick, it seems the girls have a hard time even keeping straight faces. Even burgeoning starlet Missy Monroe delivers a forgettable scene.
Area 69's meager story involves Julie Robbins getting infected by some sexually charged alien presence. As a result, she is driven to seek out girls to whom she can spread the infection.
There are a couple of good moments - particularly when Julie has her tongue buried deep in another girl's butt hole and also when she shares a double-sided dong with a different girl. But the girls never really seem to convincingly get into each other. And the constant shaky camera movements make the presence of the camera too obvious.

all right. how about a big round of applause for all our honorees. thank you dancers. thank you singers. that concludes our program.
>> thank you all for coming, i would like to really briefly introduce bonnie angle with the breast cancer fund, she is going to do a presentation for you on prevention, ways to preventolin ks of chemicals in breast cancer and i'll let her talk about the rest, bonnie, thank you for coming. >> alright. thank you all so much for being here today. i'm very excited to be able to give this presentation to you, unfortunately, i was expecting to have a co-presenter who had a minor accident and visited the emergency room this morning instead of visiting us, so we have plenty of folks from the
breast cancer fund and other groups on hand to answer questions, but we are missing our policy geru unfortunately, i don't know how much this audience is familiar with it but we've also been meeting and talking about doing a study of exposures among women firefighters in particular, and so we have some members of that team talking about that here, sharl patton is back there, give a wave, and did rachel step out already? and rachel thought she was going to give a wave but she had to step out to go to another meeting, from the breast cancer fund, we have my two science leaders, [inaudible] and janet gray, so science questions galor, they can handle them all, policy questions, we'll have to deflect some of those to nancy for another time, so what i'm
going to present today is what we call our healthy home and healthy world tours, i'll talk a little bit about who the breast cancer fund is and then we're going to walk through kind of the rooms in your home talking about tips for avoiding exposures that are linked to breast cancer and i will talk a little bit about the different chemicals, where they're found, things you can do to avoid them and also some policies, and then we'll kind of go beyond the home to talk about the kinds of exposures that might be not within our control in the house but elsewhere. and it looks like i have videos so that is good. so, the breast cancer fund is a national organization that works to prevent breast cancer by eliminating the environmental exposures linked o the disease, mostly we talk about chemicals and radiation that are linked to breast cancer, we are a little different from your breast
cancer organizations out there, we often associate breast cancer with pink ribbons and we're about to see an onslaught of ribbons in our stores, we don't identify with pink because that's mostly associated with cures and treatments and we're on prevention, we're not affiliated with other breast cancer groups, there are all different breast cancer organize sashes that do their own agenda setting and we are an independent group that we have a board that helps us make decisions as an entity, we're not focused on a cure, we focus exclusively on prevention and environmental links to the disease, we don't fund individuals and there are some amazing organizations that do that work, they'll provide extra money for treatment or food and bill payment, that's not what we do, and we don't provide direct services like support groups or treatment or any of those things and there are other great organizations that do that work.
we are an organization that translates and analyzes the science, i'll talk about that a little bit more in a minute, we work on public education, on policy initiatives, on web based and media advocacy, we have a lot of fun in that area so you should join us online and corporate accountability campaigns which i'll talk a little bit about later on in this presentation, we're really a community, so you can see pictures of different folks at different evens interacting and having a great time so we like to be hopeful that we can indeed prevent this disease and reduce the rates of breast cancer, and we have what we think is an amazing website that's full of all of the information that i'm going to present today and then some, so anything i talk about today, you can also find on our website which has rich information about the science, rich information about policy
and ways that you can get involved, even by hiking in mount town this weekend and helping us raise some funds so we have some folks doing that in the audience as well, so as i said, we are a science-based organization, everything we do a rooted in a rich foundation in the science, and so for the past decade in fact, every couple of years, we produce a document called the state of the evidence, janet gray has been the primary author of the last two -- is it two or three, two editions plus the one we're working on right now which will update a lot of that on our website in particular, we're planning to unveil some exciting stuff in the next year, and with that, we try to connect the dots between the environmental exposures and breast cancer, we look at the peer reviewed literature, all of that rich scientific stuff
and janet gray turns that into information that we can all read at various levels, and from there, we kind of translate it into presentations like this one, into policy needs and into tips on our website so we use that scientific foundation to do a lot of different things. i want to talk always about some of the themes that emerge pr the literature because that helps us understand why we're concerned about the particular chemicals which we are concerned, so some particular themes emerge in the literature that come up again and again across a number of different chemicals and the first of that is that early life exposures and exposures at other developmental periods are really important, so timing is as we're learning everything. another important concept is that low dose exposures matter, so we often talk about --
you'll hear like the dose makes the poison, we're finding out over time that that's not necessarily true in the sense that more dose means more bad health outcomes, it's looking like in some cases very minute doses have really major effects, and i want to talk about why that might be, so you see here a picture of some different periods of development that are of concern and these share something really important in common, and that is that these are times when the body's own hormones are orchestrating some complex and amazing things, during the prenatal period where with regard to the breast, you know, the basic structures are being laid down and that is guided by the body's own hormones or during puberty when breasts start to develop, we know that teenagers are like hormonally out of control, the hormones are doing some things there,
pregnancy and lactation, and our body's own hormones work at these amazingly small amounts to make these big dramatic changes happen at these important periods of time, so it's not surprising perhaps that external chemicals na look to our body like hormones would have a somewhat notable effects at these same periods of development so that's an important concept that we're starting to see and chemicals that are endocrine disrupting compounds or hormone disrupters as you might hear them called are a big focus of the work we've been doing and of the data that's been emerging in the scientific literature in the last ten years so this is exciting stuff and we'll talk about specifics about that in a minute, another important theme that emerges that we were talking about our meeting earlier is that mixtures
matter, it all adds upfinger so some of the chemicals i'm going to talk about you might be exposed to -- kids might be exposed in toys and in food products and in personal care products and all of these different things, so that you get an accumulation of one kind of chemical or a set of like related chemicals from a bunch of different sources, and those might act on the same path that other chemicals from other sources do, so you have this whole mixture of an 80 thousand chemical soup that we all live in and those all combine together to have effects. we also know that those different chemicals and exposures interact with our own characteristics as people, where we were born, where we grew up, the environmental and social stressors that we may or may not have encountered as children and your genes, your
diet, our lifestyle, our physical activity, also shape, how vulnerable we might be to those chemical exposures so those are some key concepts to give a foundation for what we're going to get into now, and now we're going to get a little bit practical, so healthy homes, and here's our healthy, happy home, we're going to jump right on into the kitchen and we're going to jump into the cup board and talk about canned food, you might have heard of the chemical bpa, you'll see it on water bottles and baby bottles, and that means it does not have the chemical in it, bpa, what you might not know, it's not only in plastic but also in the lining of most food cans so you'll see this shiny layer if you open up a food can and also in a lot of the thermal receipt paper that you get, the kind that prints without making any noise, that can get on your
skin, bpa is an endocrine disrupting compound and we sometimes call it the poster child edc because there's over 200 studies linking bpa to different health effects and we know a lot more about how it works than we do about some of the other chemicals that we're exploring and policies are kind of moving forward more rapidly too so if we could knock down bpa, it would set a precedent for other laws and market based changes that could have a big domino effect on our exposures, especially to endocrine disrupting compounds, you go back to standard you may have used in college, i did when i didn't have any money was to soak the beans, it's way cheaper, avoids canned food exposure, also to go with frozen or fresh vegetables if you can rather than cans, to
choose stainless steel water bottles and other alternatives for baby bottles if you have young children and to change markets and to change laws because we know there are a lot of inequities that shapes who has access to healthy foods and fresh fruits,, we need to change some laws that these canned foods are safer, and more foods are available. we've gone into a can of corn, i don't know if you got that, we dove into this can of corn to talk about the bpa act, from representative ann marky from the house and senator from the senate, and this bans [inaudible] food and beverage containers, from infant and toddlers food, from everything, from adults, pregnant women,
some important populations in there and requires the alternatives being considered for use is replacement be tested for safety in a significant way, and that is really important because we're finding that some of the possible replacements might look just like bpa in a lot of ways or might have some worker concerns that may not be linked to breast cancer but might be linked to other health concerns for workers like asthma and breathing concerns, it's very important, we've seen 20 state bills be introduced in the last couple of years which is a lot, that's almost half of the nation's states, so we're jumping out of bpa and popping over to the microwave, so related to bpa are other plastics, and so we encounter these plastics all over in our world and some plastics are carcinogens, number 3, and
number 6 which are vinyl chloride and styrene and number 7 which can contain bpa but doesn't always, and there's also estrogenic activity, additives put into other plastics, so it's important to skip micro waiving in plastic, it leaks some of those chemicals into your food, i like to pop stuff into a ceramic bowl, put another ceramic bowl over it to create a lid and you're skipping the plastic. so, you can use stainless steel or glass for leftovers and overall, 1, 2, 4 and 5 are generally safer plastics but it's good to know that those additives even in those can lead to that so you want to be cognizant of that. going organic is another way to reduce exposures, to chemicals
that you consume in the food but it has bigger effects because it's going to reduce the overall load of pesticides in our environment that workers and farmers are exposed to and make our way into our air and water so those are important reductions that go beyond our own home and can affect everybody's health. some tips there are to choose hormone-free meats and milks in particular, to go with organic dried beans or organic frozen fruits or vegetables, some of our colleagues have the dirty dozen of foods to almost always buy organic and the clean 15, which are foods that you can kind of skip the organic because they have a stronger protective, like a ban ban na which has such a big peel, keeps those pesticides out, so if you're working on an economy of scale, you know, go with organic with the ones that have the highest levels of
pesticides. our website has a link to those tips so i can show you where that would be. and now we're going to pop into the living room and talk about flame retardants which are an important issue for any firefighters who are working in the field because it's those burns that are going to create exposures, so as folks in the home are thinking about that, once they found that frequent hand washing can reduce the actual levels of these flame retardants because we touch them, they get on our hands, they're in household dusts and make their way into our bodies, so washing them off our hands can reduce exposures, using a vak coupe with a hepa filter and a big move that could come down the pike is going down to
legacy fabrics like wool and fabric that don't require the use of these mraim retardants at all and burn much more slowly, this's been some amazing videos that you can look at that you may have seen that show the legacy fabrics burning so much more slowly than the flame retardant treated ones, so that's some important information to have and makeshifts toward slower burning fabrics. moving into the bathroom, we're going to dive into the cleaning cabinet first, so a big shift here, cleaning products, this is a big one because it's easy to make safe choices if you know what's in your products, you know what you don't want to buy and you know what you do want to buy, with cleaning products, they don't have to tell you anything about what's being used in those products, even your cosmetics have more
labeling than your cleaning products, so one of the major thins is moving towards companies that tell you what they use, particularly avoiding heavily fragrance products because that word fragrance, if you see that on any kind of label can contain dozens to hundreds of chemicals, some that could be likely to be endocrine disrupters, evelyn glycol, psb's, some tips here, and this is money saving too which is good because i've told you to buy organic and do all these other things, save some money by going with vinegar, baking soda, that's what i use in my home and you really can get your windows and your metals sparkling clean with vinegar, can get the grit off with baking soda, really effective things even in the laundry.
we're going to jump right in and talk about some policy as we just covered cleaning products, they don't have the tell you what's in them, pass laws that require labeling of cleaning products, one that is are used in industrial settings like schools, my dad is a high school custodian, i want him to not be exposed to chemicals where he doesn't know where they are or in the fire houses, what are they using there? what are being used in hospitals at times or universities, all of these institutions can make big changes in overall exposures with industrial cleaners but we have to know what's in them and requiring disclosure of any potential health effects with cleaning ingredients so we know what the concerns are, there's a lot of overlap between cleaning products and personal care products, with personal care products, they are labeled which is excellent, except they
can still have that sneaky little word fragrance which can still contain dozens to hundreds of chemicals, some of which may be endocrine disrupters like synthetic mosque, so wanting to avoid those and we're talking bath products, there's sometimes triclosan in tooth paste, we're talking stuff that men, kids, preteens are using, a whole gamete of stuff there, so going simpler, picking companies that really are telling you everything that's in your product so you can make informed choices, and also really being particularly cognizant with kid's products and we'll talk about that a little bit more in a second. so, there is this safe cosmetics act which works to phase out known carcinogens, genetic mute jens and
reproductive toxins from cosmetics, right now, those are allowed to be in there, the u.s. has banned 11 things in cosmetics, also requiring premarket safety, tests of ingredients, full labeling including everything that's in fragrance and considering of vulnerable populations when deciding what's safe and what's not, so those are some important things that happen a lot. there are actually three different bills on personal care products in congress right now, there's the good bill, which does these things, there's the newt ra bill which keeps the status quo and then what's kind of a bad bill, and they all sound like they're good because they all sound like, you know, safety of chemicals in cosmetic, they all have those words but they don't really all do that so i think it's also important as you're
thinking about these things to go to a reputable organization that you trust is going to give you real information and support the kinds of laws that they're supporting rather than one that's maybe a bill posed by the industry that, guess what, wants to be self-regulating. okay, so now we are moving to the driveway, and this is really interesting because we think about low emissions cars as being really important for maybe climate change but they also might be important for breast cancer because when fuel is burning and you guys are familiar with chemicals that, you know, come bust, lower emissions vehicle, one that's more efficient may reduce these
pah's in our air and especially in urban areas reduce exposures to those compounds which is really pornts, so thinking about hybrid or electric, we're all lucky enough to take public transit and reduce those overall exposures or -- yeah? >> i believe so, is that true? yes, my science advisors, that's why they're here. >> [inaudible]. >> yeah. there are a lot of carcinogens in diesel exhaust, yeah. >> [inaudible]. >> well, you're still seeing an oil that combusts, some of them we know burn more cleanly than
others but if it's combusting, you end up with productions of combustion, it may not be better for pollution on the other side, depending on how clean the air burns and that's a theme we end up talking about a fair bit unfortunately is that bio doesn't always mean it's safer, it can, it can definitely mane we're reducing destruction of greenhouse gases but it can still make bad things outs of good ingredients if you know what i mean, another outdoor thing is to reduce your reliance on household pesticides so the active ingredients can be of concern, the pesticide itself, but most pesticide companies done label what are called the inert ingredient, that's the one that's not doing the pest killing per se, they can still
really be bad chemicals, endocrine sdrukt tersest can be there, your baby crawls on your lawn, those exposures are out there, going with integrated pest management, beneficial species and doing these kinds of things in public parks and school yards ask things like that where, you know, you might be catching a larger catch man of land can be really important, so that is the healthy home tour and now we're going to go beyond the home into the healthy world tour and these are kind to have ways that the choices that we make as individuals or in our policies shape a healthier, safer world. so, we've talked very briefly about moving the markets along and i want to talk about that for just a moment more, so we
have two major market-based campaigns with the breast cancer fund, the campaign with safe koz meats and cans, not cancer, they target the makers of products who are more agile than laws, it can take decades to pass a good law, we saw those in changes of health care, what year were we starting to talk about revising our health care policies, i think it was 93 and it was 2008 before there was passage of a law so it can take decades and dozens of years, but if we ask for safer products, the market can turn on a dime. in 2007-2008, everyone started talking about bpa in plastics, by 2009, bpa-free plastics were everywhere, so can, not cancer is getting bpa out of food cans and y

Friedenau is a locality (Ortsteil) within the borough (Bezirk) of Tempelhof-Schöneberg in Berlin, Germany. Relatively small by area, its population density is the highest one in the city.[1]
Friedenau is part of the southwestern suburbs, right at the border with the inner city Schöneberg district, separated by the Berlin Ringbahn and the BAB 100 motorway (Stadtring). It borders the Wilmersdorf locality in the west and Steglitz in the south.
The streets and squares are laid out according to a geometric urban design with an almost complete assembly of Gründerzeit buildings, which survived the bombing of Berlin in World War II.
Urban planning[edit]
The characteristic feature of Friedenau is the Carstenn figure, named after urban developer Johann Anton Wilhelm von Carsten. This symmetrical figure consists of an avenue dividing a circular road, which is delimited by four town squares.
Some streets in Friedenau were renamed after rivers in Alsace-Lorraine to commemorate the annexation of this region into the German Empire.
The majority of buildings in Friedenau date to the early 20th century. Therefore, the architectural styles are almost uniform. 185 buildings are protected as cultural heritage sites.
Younger buildings do not necessarily match the surrounding cityscape, since the reconstruction efforts after World War II gave little consideration to the preservation of architectural uniformity.
In 1871 it was founded as an affluent commuter town on the estates of the former Deutsch-Wilmersdorf manor. The German name Friedenau, referring to Frieden (peace) and the suffix -au meaning floodplains (hence "floodplain of peace"), was proposed by Hedwig Hähnel, wife of the architect Hermann Hähnel, in memory of the 1871 Peace of Frankfurt, which ended the Franco-Prussian War. It was adopted by Mr. Hähnel, then the director of the Landerwerb- und Bauverein auf Actien (inc.), which developed the real estate in the area.[2] When in 1874 the area constituted as an independent municipality within the Province of Brandenburg, the denotation had already been established and became the official municipal name.
Friedenau opened its own non-denominational municipal cemetery, today's Städtischer Friedhof III, which soon grew too small. So in 1909 Friedenau bought a tract of land in Güterfelde (today a component of Stahnsdorf) as additional graveyard, with the first burial taking place in 1913. Friedenau's municipal construction councillor Hans Altmann designed for the cemetery a mourning chapel, an office, a gardener's house, a flower shop, benches and a fountain as well as a net of paths replicating the streets net in Friedenau. Since June 1913 the cemetery was accessible via the so-called cemetery train line ending at Stahnsdorf station.
Friedenau joined with the town of Schöneberg in 1920 – under the latter's name – as the former 11th administrative borough of Greater Berlin. In the short time from 29 April to 30 June 1945, when the Red Army occupied all Berlin, it was a borough in its own right, until it was reunified with Schöneberg as one borough within the American Sector of West Berlin.
The Güterfelde cemetery, since 1920 called Forest Cemetery of Schöneberg was operated since 1935 by Berlin's Borough of Wilmersdorf, called Wilmersdorf Forest Cemetery Güterfelde (German: Wilmersdorfer Waldfriedhof Güterfelde). After 1945 the cemetery happened to be in the Soviet Zone of Occupation and later in the German Democratic Republic (East Germany), thus with the increasing Eastern interdiction of West Berlin the cemetery grew inaccessible for the Friedenauers.
On 5 April 1986 a bomb exploded at the La Belle discothèque in a former cinema on Hauptstraße 78, killing a Turkish woman and two U.S. servicemen and injuring numerous people. A plaque marks the site.

Syracuse center Jeff Szwez said he purposely targeted Manitoba's Nathan McIver for a first-period fight in the teams' game on Saturday.
Szwez said the scoreless first period was kind of blah. So he hit McIver along the boards, and asked him if he wanted to fight. McIver said sure.
That was long on spirit, but bad in terms of results. Szwez dropped him with one quick left.
�Hockey players are always waiting to grab. Sometimes quickness pays off,� Szwez said. �It�s the element of surprise. I wanted to set a tone for the guys.�

Cheese puffs
Cheese puffs | |
Cheese puffs in a bowl
Alternative names | Cheese curls, cheese balls, cheesy puffs, cheese poofs, cheesy poofs, corn curls, corn cheese |
Type | Snack food |
Place of origin | United States |
Main ingredients | Puffed corn, flavoring |
Cookbook:Cheese puffs Cheese puffs |
Cheese puffs, cheese curls, cheese balls, cheesy puffs, corn curls, corn cheese are a puffed corn snack / crisp, coated with a mixture of cheese or cheese-flavored powders. Common brands include Pirate's Booty (U.S.), Cheetos (U.S.), Cheez Doodles (Northeastern U.S., Sweden), Chee-Wees (New Orleans, South Central U.S.), Chizitos (Perú), Boliquesos (Perú), Cheezies (Canada), Twisties (Australia), Kurkure (India and Pakistan), Utz (U.S.) Wotsits (U.K.),[1] Curl (Japan) and Chee.Toz (Iran).
They are manufactured by extruding heated corn dough through a die that forms the particular shape. They may be ball-shaped, curly ("cheese curls"), straight, or irregularly shaped. Some are even shaped as animals or other objects. Some cheese puffs are puffy while others are crunchy. A similar snack, puffcorn is made likewise, but without the cheese flavoring.
Cheese puffs were invented in the United States of America in the 1930s; there are two competing accounts. According to one account, Edward Wilson and/or Clarence J. Schwebke of the Flakall Corporation of Beloit, Wisconsin (a producer of flaked, partially cooked animal feed) deep-fried and salted the puffed corn produced by their machines, and later added cheese.[2] He applied for a patent in 1939 and the product, named Korn Kurls, was commercialized in 1946 by the Adams Corporation, formed by one of the founders of Flakall and his sons.[3] Adams was later bought by Beatrice Foods.
Another account claims they were invented by the Elmer Candy Corporation of New Orleans, Louisiana some time during or prior to 1936 at which time the sales manager for Elmer's, Morel M. Elmer, Sr., decided to hold a contest in New Orleans to give this successful product a name. The winning name "CheeWees" is still being used today by the manufacturing company, Elmer's Fine Foods.
The fictitious brand of cheese puffs called "Cheesy Poofs" appears regularly in the animated television series South Park, and the Frito-Lay company made a limited run of the snack in August 2011.[4]
The fictitious brand of cheese puffs called "Cheezy Dibbles" is one of the main running jokes of the 2014 film "Penguins of Madagascar".[5]

Why was Luka Rocco Magnotta transported to Canada on a Canadian military plane?
The explanation by the Montreal police that the Canadian airlines flying from Berlin refused to accept Magnotta as a passenger is entirely accurate. The sordid nature of the allegations against Magnotta was sufficiently notorious that the airlines were likely concerned that his presence would alarm other passengers sharing the flight.
There were legitimate security concerns for the police to consider as well. Magnotta's face was instantly recognizable as a result of his case's international profile. He would be handcuffed on the plane. The list of passengers on a commercial flight might include someone with a desire to attack Magnotta as a vigilante or in a fit of anger. It was also not inconceivable that a fellow passenger might be aligned with Magnotta and attempt to rescue him.
It is not unprecedented for the police in Canada to transfer prisoners on RCMP airplanes. I was advised that Karla Homolka and Clifford Olsen were transported in such a manner. The unique feature of the Magnotta case was that he was transported beyond the borders of Canada.
Police officials were required to act quickly when the German government extradited Magnotta. The officers involved didn't have the luxury of attempting to patiently sort out the issue of the Canadian transfer. There would have been public outrage if the flight from Berlin to Montreal was delayed.
In the end, Canadian police made a viable and responsible decision. Magnotta was brought back to Canada on a military plane. His transfer occurred without disruption or difficulty. He was able to retain counsel and has entered the court process in this country after an initial video remand.
From this point forward Magnotta will be treated similarly to any defendant charged with first-degree murder. He has pleaded not guilty and his preliminary hearing has been scheduled. It will take place in March of 2013.

Released: Jul 01st, 1998
Running Time: 109
Company: Odyssey Group Video
Shawnee, Lauren (I), Tabitha (I), Kyle Stone (I), Jake Steed, Others, Guy DiSilva, Veronica (I)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Pro-Am
Better than most, but it is what it is.
More like 50% amateur, not 100%; and it's less than the advertised two-hour running time. Other than that, Vol. 44 is better than most amateur tapes from a technical standpoint. The lighting is arranged by someone who can actually spell the name Thomas Edison, and the image quality is superior to most such releases, which are so grainy they look like they were shot with a bowl of granola.
The sex is pretty good. All of the standard bases are covered, with an anal penetration here, a d.p. there, some dildo use and a variety of facials. Each scene is a threeway. One featuring an above-average-looking girl named Lauren and two nerdy farm boys gets a pre-nom for Most Premature Ejaculations in a Sex Scene. However, what these boys lack in self-control is overcompensated for in the number of time they blow their nuts. Lauren gets hosed down more than the blue ribbon pig out back.

The film survives on a thick diet of genuine acting moments. Bernal, as the Grand Guignol catalyst, plays it with the nearly hidden wariness of a sociopath, but it's impossible not to believe Paul Dano as the family's pale, earnest scion/minister-to-be and James as the vulnerable girl among bow hunters whose job it is to swab up the deer guts. Best of all, Hurt expands on a great American archetypethe neocon mega-dad who's on a mission but lost, holy but poisoned from within, macho but never very sure of what's right. Probably no other actor standing today could've brought this much juice to such a potentially simplistic character.

Stray-insensitive switched-capacitor sample-delay-hold buffers for video frequency applications
Rijns, J.J.F. and Wallinga, H. (1991) Stray-insensitive switched-capacitor sample-delay-hold buffers for video frequency applications. Electronics Letters, 27 (8). pp. 639-640. ISSN 0013-5194

Abstract: | Two video frequency switched-capacitor sample-delay-hold (SDH) buffers are presented. The circuits provide a correct transition from the continuous-time to the discrete-time domain or vice versa. Experimental results show an excellent frequency behaviour for clock frequencies up to 25 MHz |

Growth and Convergence in ASEAN: A Dynamic Panel Approach.Ismail, Normaz Wana (2008) Growth and Convergence in ASEAN: A Dynamic Panel Approach. International Journal of Economics and Management, 2 (1). pp. 127-140. ISSN 1823-836X
AbstractThis study investigates the issues of convergence and economic growth in the ASEAN. Preliminary graphical observations find strong evidence of β and σ convergence after the expansion of ASEAN membership. This results support the convergence theory that poor countries in ASEAN do catch up with the rich ones. The convergence and growth effects in the ASEAN integration is estimated by using the dynamic heterogenous panel approach namely Pooled Mean Group Estimator (PMGE). The empirical evidence supports unconditional and conditional convergence hypotheses in the ASEAN5 namely Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, The Philippnes and Thailand, for the 1960-2004 period. The ASEAN5 tends to converge to a steady state growth rate of per capita GDP with a speed of convergence of between 1.6% and 16.6%.
